Super easy video and simple to understand, could you post the link to the wafer paper you used? I’ve searched for a while but couldn’t find any ones as thin as 0.37mm

[@floreacakes]

You can find all my links on my website: astashkinacakes.com/tools. I buy from Amazon

[@staceyy2827]

These are beautiful!! I wanted to know what gold dusts are you using? I love the way you are storing them...I use random cups and glasses and its not very organized! :0)

[@floreacakes]

I know, right? Somehow those tiny jars are everywhere and you can never find the one you need! Look for beads storage at any craft store of amazon!

[@staceyy2827]

@@floreacakes awesome thank you!!

[@ericasimonson8737]

These are really beautiful, but as a hobby baker, I'm so confused by the use of edible cake decorations that are then inserted with wire. Why bother? I don't get it! I am going to try these, though

[@ericasimonson8737]

Can we use rubbing alcohol in place of vodka? Thank you, Anna!

[@floreacakes]

Yes, if you are not planning on eating this decorations

[@ericasimonson8737]

Great, thanks so much!@@floreacakes 😍

[@Lydia-ky3xu]

Can I use a flavoured vodka? I have absolut raspberry lime vanilla and lemon flavoured vodka

[@floreacakes]

Absolutely! That sounds so fun!

[@robertdas8862]

Hi , what can be use instead of alcohol??

Hi im having a question, is it possible to airbrush both Wafer,Rice paper if i dnt wanna use gel food colours??

[@floreacakes]

Yes you can! I have a video on my channel about other ways to color wafer paper as well

[@marcia0509able]

The video has no subtitles and translation available 😔

[@HopesMomE]

I'm sorry, but I'm confused because on another video you made, so said you didn't like to use alcohol because it damaged wafer paper? 🤔

[@floreacakes]

Thank you for your question. Alcohol make wafer paper very stiff and hard, so I never use it for flowers where I need movement and flexibility, but to paint of decorations, such as there butterflies - it's perfect, because I need wafer paper to keep it's shape.

[@HopesMomE]

​@@floreacakesOkay, thank you for clarifying. 😊

You can use my AC Tonic recipe, but plan ahead, it will take longer to dry
